My first thought is to look in the mirror. And I do think that's where the problem lies. Something in my implementation is probably incorrect. About 15 minutes ago I discovered roundrobin isn't perfect either, as I am able to consistently get disconnects mid-ssh session routing from one VLAN in particular through another, so the problem source seems to be cross-VLAN and I suspect my PF configuration is the root cause.
